Taking Shots

Tag Archives: ski

I’ve done a ton of patterns lately but havent posted them cause I’m lazy or something. Heres my current project. I’ve put probably…. pfff….. 6 hours into it, brainstorming, creating, learning (first 3-D), and watching my computer crash…. over and over and over again. Seriously, the first time photoshop crashed it was a little cute i guess… Like a tiny bit…. the next 8 times it was just down right infuriating.

ANY WAYs, my current project is the shirts for UCONN ski and snowboard club, which im designing the graphics for… o wait….. i mite lose if some one esles design is better, in which case i would be mad upset…. but i should be fine. The first picture was my original design which i scrapped. Its nice and simple and would make a great logo, but it just wouldn’t look good on shirts at all. The second picture is my second and hopefully final attempt. I did the 3-d text using the 3-d thing in photoshop which is really awesome, but really wicked complex. I’m probs not even using it right, but i like how it looks so screw it. I also had to hand draw both the figures, which is a pain in the ass without a tablet or even a computer mouse. But i still did it so its all good. THe skier is almost completely done, if not completely done, and the snowboarder is still in the starting stages. the skier was easy cause the pose isnt that complex but the snowboarders pose is really complex and makes me upset. eh. itll work in the end. I’m dreading squeezing in UCONN and CLUB into the picture, as it already feels crammed. I was going for a hand drawn kinda sloppy not perfect look, and use only brushes, not pen tool, vectors, selections or anything, so it came out pretty good. Really helping me master the brush tool, even if it is a 100%hard circle brush
